The band Crveni Koralji (The Red Corals) was formed in 1962. First name of the band was Crveni djavoli (Red Devils). They were inspired by Cliff Richard and The Shadows. In the beginning they played mostly covers, but “Rekla si: volimo se” – first song they wrote was a big hit. Almost 100000 copies of the single were sold.
